I wanted to devour her.
The latter won.
I grabbed the hem of her sundress, forced myself to pull back just long enough to lift it over her head in one fluid motion. I groaned at the sight of her, breasts spilling from a low-cut black lace bra, matching panties, her expression just as hungry as I felt.
“I want this,” she said.
“Good,” I said. “Because I’m going to give it to you.”
I started to unbutton my shirt, but she stepped forward.
“Let me.”
She slowed it down deliberately, unbuttoning one by one until I couldn’t take the torture anymore. I tore the shirt off, already imagining my face buried between her breasts.
“Juliette, this isn’t going to be gentle.”
She smiled, but said nothing.
As I kicked off my shoes and she did the same, I stopped her when her hands reached behind her back.
“Let me.”
Down to my underwear, I turned her slowly and unclasped her bra. As it slipped away, her back bare to me, I moved her hair over her shoulder and kissed the curve of her neck. Then lower. Down her spine. Finally, I reached around and covered her breasts with my hands.
“Do you have any idea how badly I’ve wanted to do this?”
I circled my thumbs around her nipples, hardening them, playing until she made a broken sound.
“Your body is perfection.”
She turned her head. “You’re one to talk.”
My hands slid down her waist, slipping under her panties. I hooked the lace with my thumbs, lowering them inch by inch until her underwear hit the floor.
“Turn around.”
She did, but I didn’t stand just yet.
“I want you to remember this position,” I said quietly. “Because soon we’ll be on the bed, and I’ll be down there between your legs, making you come.”
She swallowed hard as if doubting we would actually make it that far.
“Are you on the pill?”
“I am.”
Her hand slid across my chest, down my abs. I sucked in a breath.
“Juliette. I warned you.”
She didn’t stop. Her hand slipped lower, wrapping around me. I was already hard, and when she tightened her grip, I lost control for the moment.
She could have it.
“Do you like this?” she asked.
I closed my eyes. No imagination required anymore.
